Our service is very simple. Where you choose to nominate Commission Refunders to receive any continuing commission payments (trail commission) your financial products might generate, we will forward 100% of the commission received to your nominated bank account on the anniversary of your joining Commission Refunders.

As part of that service, we may send you information which we believe will help to keep you abreast of opportunities and changes in the financial services world.

Commission Refunders staff, directors and associates are authorised to provide general financial product information only. We are unable to provide you with any personal advice. This means that we will not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs.

Commission Refunders does not, either directly or indirectly, advise or recommend on financial services or financial products. The information contained on the Commission Refunders website does not take into account the appropriateness of investments for an individual’s circumstances, investment objectives, financial situation or the merit of any particular investments.

Commission Refunders can put you in touch with fee for service financial advisers upon request.

How we are remunerated

The amount of commission paid by product a provider varies considerably from provider to provider and can vary from year to year in some products. To be clear about the amount of commission payable you will need to refer to the information contained in the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) which was current at the time you purchased the product.

Trailing commissions on products will generally range as follows:

Investments 0% to 2%pa of the fund balance

Margin Lending 0% to 1.1%pa of the outstanding debt

Insurance 0% to 35%pa of the renewal premiums

Commission Refunders will pay you 100% of all trail commission we receive.
This means that if you have an insurance policy that costs you $1000 in premium, and the commission rate is 20%pa, we will collect $200 and forward this to you on the anniversary of your joining Commission Refunders.

In return we will receive any volume based payments or rebates that may be payable as a result of Commission Refunders receiving the trail commission. Payment of these rebates /payments is generally dependent on the total funds under advice or the total annual renewal premium in force at any particular time.

These payments are paid to Infocus and can range between 0% and 0.28%pa for investment and 0% and 22%pa for insurance. For instance, where your investment is $50,000 and Infocus is able to reach the hurdles e.g. minimum total funds under advice and the product pays a volume rebate of 0.28%pa, Infocus will receive $140pa.
